Description
The Lamb Hotel is an early 19th-century brick building located at 1082 Lynn Road. It features a simple parapet and has a plastered west front. There are brick additions extending to the north along Lynn Road, which include a partly three-storey and partly two-storey stable wing. The main block of the hotel is three storeys high, with a six-window range on the west front and a four-window range on the south front. The northern extension has a five-window range. All windows are double-hung sashes with glazing bars set in plain reveals. The entrance on the west front boasts an early 19th-century stucco doorcase with pilasters and a cornice. The north extension includes a cart entrance with a segmental brick arched head. The roofs are covered with slate. The Lamb Hotel is part of a group that includes Nos 1, 1A & 2 High Street and No 3 Minister Place.
